Answer 2

Answer:

The ratio of Milk and water is calculated as 17:10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given values  

Milk=7x, water=5x mixture of both =7x+5x=12x

So, the equation     12x=60

The value of x=5

Step 2: Taking out 12litre (60-12=48)

So, 7x+5x=48

12x=48

X=4

Step 3: After adding 6litre pure milk

Mixture=48litre +6 litre=54 litre  

Milk=28litre + 6litre=34litre

Water =20 litre

Step 4:

To calculate the ratio milk and water 34/20 =17/10
